Here is a Heart Pixel Blinker tutorial that we are going to make.

This is what it looks like. that we will make.

 

 

1. First we need to make a heart so this is the first part. we will make the heart in a 150 x 150, then what I do is once I have one heart made copy and paste that to a new image and just add the heart, bracket, heart for how many letters you want to use.

we do a half a heart , once we have that made then we go to copy and paste as a new layer, and then we are going to go on that layer and go to image and then click on mirror , then we will bring them together and then go to layers merge and we will have this.

Once we have the full heart we are going to flood fill it so take your magic wand and click in the center of the hear and then pick what color you want to flood fill it with and click on paint bucket and flood fill.  Now we will go to the top and click on selections and go to Float and click that on, then we go to Effects 3 D effects cutout and we are going to use these numbers Vertical and Horizontal 0  Opacity 80% and Blur 12% and pick a color out for shadow color, when you get it to where you like it click o.k. and then go to selections  and click that on again at the top and click none.

This is what we should have

Now once we have that we need to make as many hearts as we want to blink, since we are doing a name and my name has 6 letters in it I am going to show you that one.

Here I added 2 hearts and one bracket together notice the layers

here is the bracket I used it is very simple to make it is 2 pixels up and one to the side and then 5 up and one to the side and 2 down and you have a bracket.

 

Next you will see where I did my hearts


next what we need to do is this
 

You will notice on the side where the layers are I have 2 one is just the hearts the second is just my name .

Next what we are going to do is this.

Here is what you do next we are going to make 5 layers of our name and one layer of hearts, Now remember what ever your name is how many layers you do  so since mine is 5 that is what I am doing so I click on my layer that has my name on it only and I go to duplicate , what I do is A was raster 1 and the L is raster 2 and etc till I h end with A as my last raster layer. 

Next we go to Raster 2 and highlight that layer and I am going to erase the A, then I go to the next Layer and that is Raster layer 3 and erase the L and then I go to the next raster layer and do the same erase the E and you keep going until you get the last one erased.

Next we are going to  do this

Now we are going to duplicate the heart layers so I am going to have 5 name layers and 5 heart layers, you might have more then me or less it depend on your name.

Next we are going to do this.

we are going to start to merge are  layers so what I do is cross out the others layers you want only the bottom heart layer and the first letter in your name as active,

so then we go to layers and merge visible so you see where it shows merge , next we go to copy of raster 1 and copy of raster 2 and we undo those two layers but remember to x out the layer you just merge and make sure you have the text one highlighted which will be copy of raster 2 and merge those and them go and do the rest. when we are all finish we should have 5 merge layers or how ever your name is.

 so this is what we should have.

Now we are ready to take to Animation shop

So when we go into animation shop we are going to click on in psp the bottom layer that is merge because that is where are first layer is that would be my A so I am going to make sure that is Highlighted and then go to copy and paste as New Animation in Animation Shop, now the next layer we will highlight and we will copy and paste after Current Frame, you do that with each one until the end, now I want you to click on in animation shop the Arrow it is white towards the top and go to layer one move the bar back to layer 1 and click that on go to Edit and go down to Select all now you should have one in red and blue and the rest all in blue.  Now I want you to go to Animation on top and click that on and go down to Animation Frames and put the Number at 30, next we go to View and click on Animation and your tag will open up to show you how it will look, now if you want it faster you go back to Animation and change the number, , Once you get it to where you want it you go to File and clcik on Optimization Wizard and you will have this

you want

next you click on Next and you will have this

then clcik next, next, finish and now you go to file and save as and put it in a folder that you want. 

You Are done, I do hope that you are able to understand this.

so you should end up with this
